after4ever (2711), Brier, Washington, USA Aug 24, 2007 330. Pours cloudy dark straw colored with a positively towering thick bubbly platinum-blonde head. Plenty of irregular lace down the sides of the glass as the beasty-big head settles. Huge lemony nose, very little wheat sour there. Watery and extremely neutral flavors on the mid palate and the finish...starts out beautifully and then goes nowhere. Habanero (610), Tranbjerg, Denmark Aug 23, 2007 Bottle: Pours hazy and pale yellow with an off-white, mostly dimnishing head. Nose of banana, yeast and fruit. Flavour of wheat, citrus fruit and coreander. Smooth and light bodied. Slightly bitter finish. Enjoyable. BeerBiker (1384), Odense, Denmark Aug 20, 2007 [Sampled in 2005 at Carlsens.] One of the best witbiers ever. Has some more ingredients than Hoegaarden, ex. yeast palate is more powerfull and the mess of different spices as coriander and oranges is nice. Complex and "abbey"!! Mike4686 (120), Bayonne, New Jersey, USA Aug 19, 2007 bottle 33cl, pours a cloudy golden color with little head, strong smells of wheat, bread, yeast, corriander. sweet bready taste, some corriander, not that bad, i kind of expected it to be a lot better. patty26 (95), New York, New York, USA Aug 19, 2007 Hazy yellow/orange pour with a thin white head that quickly evaporates, leaving very little in the form of lacing. Smells of wheat, yeast and citrus fruit (mainly orange). The taste is very light and fruity but leaves a bit of a lingering bitter aftertaste. Not bad, but I prefer Hoegaarden. biggenius29 (155), Hamilton, Michigan, USA Aug 19, 2007 Bottle poured into a wiezen glass. Pours straw yelow with a large creamy white head that sticks around leaving minimal lacing. Looking at the glass it is very murky. The aroma is grainy with some lemon in it, aso a little banana. Taking the first drink the initial flavor is grainy then I am getting a slight spicyness from the yeast, after that I get a citrusy/emon flavor along with a slight hint of coriander on the back of my tounge that lasts for a little while. The body is medium with a creamy texture and lively carbonation. ChrisThomson (378), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 18, 2007 Brussels, 07. This beer poured a nice cloudy light yellow hue with nice frothy head. The aroma was nice and fruity. Much too tart overall for my liking, but definitely refreshing. BossHossBikes (147), Tennessee, USA Aug 16, 2007 Updated: Aug 17, 2007Bottle. The pour starts off a clear gold then turns cloudy as you pour in the sediment. The head is a pale white that lasts for some time. The aroma is very bread-y with notes of banana and pineapple. There are some slight notes of cloves and various spices. The mouthfeel is pleasant in the amount of carbonation as well as the fruit juice-like consistency. It’s acidity is similar to pineapple juice or grapefruit juice. It has a nice clean finish. This is quite a refreshing beer.
